Topics this year at http://metaphysicalarticles.blogspot.com have included a retrospective series about cases of so-called 'poltergeist' phenomena along with a variety of posts about extraordinary people, mind anomalies and spiritual concerns.

At this time of year, there are many commercialized fictional renderings of paranormal themes for entertainment purposes. My intention with these blog reports is very different.

Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) October 7, 2010

Mark Russell Bell found himself confronted by the opportunity to investigate firsthand a case of unexplained phenomena described as "America's Talking Poltergeist" in a 1995 magazine article. He contacted the family experiencing many strange occurrences and arranged an interview. This was the beginning of an astonishing sequence of events. Bell comments on his experiences and research with his blog at http://metaphysicalarticles.blogspot.com

Bell became a metaphysical author with publication of the 1997 nonfiction Testament. Since 2004, he has been working on a new book that analyzes documented cases of unexplained phenomena. Bell comments, "Words such as 'paranormal' and 'supernatural' indicate some aspect of natural reality that is yet to be commonly understood. 'Poltergeist' is a term meaning 'noisy spirit.' My orientation to this subject has been comparing testimonials of such events.

"Since the publication of Testament in 1997, I've looked for information from bona fide sources that could expand one's understanding of life. As I commented when I began my blog, my objective is helping readers find noteworthy sources of information.

"My focus is upon aspects of life that I consider to be of great significance. I offer a personal analytical approach to spirituality and metaphysical subjects to encourage others to better comprehend the basis for their own beliefs."

Among the websites to have recently featured links to Bell's "Interesting Articles, Links and Other Media" blog are About.Com, The Anomalist, Daily Grail, Mysterious Universe, and SupernaturalUFO.Com.

Bell observes, "At this time of year, there are many commercialized fictional renderings of paranormal themes for entertainment purposes. My intention with these blog reports is very different. Readers are seeking information sources that provide an alternative to commercial publishing and news industries."
